3 Position Neck Stretch

This is a great stretch for anyone who experiences neck tension and may even be helpful for headache sufferers.

Hold each position for 20 seconds. I have only performed 1 20 second hold so the video is not too long.

4 Point Shoulder Exercise

The instructions are on the video. Its a great exercise to use whilst recovering from a shoulder injury to increase the range of motion available at the shoulder joint and to increase the movement of the shoulder blade on the torso.

This exercise can create problems with impingement syndromes and frozen shoulders so make sure you check with the therapists at Original Osteopathy to find out when you can introduce this exercise into any shoulder recovery program.
